Is Kdenlive working for anyone on x86_64? [SOLVED]

I'm trying to get Kdenlive to work on x86_64. My last attempt was to build everything that has a SVN package with versionpkg. Every way I go, it crashes immediately. This is all I'm getting from the backtrace:

Any thoughts?

I believe that there's something wrong with MLT. From the last post on this thread:

http://www.kdenlive.org/bbforum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=211

You can also try to play a video file with MLT's command line player to test your MLT install. In a terminal, type:

inigo your_video.mpg

If it doesn't play, there's something wrong with your MLT install...
regards

The output on my box:

[skottish@localhost prg001]$ inigo mov001.mpg
Usage: inigo [ -group [ name=value ]* ]
             [ -consumer id[:arg] [ name=value ]* ]
             [ -filter filter[:arg] [ name=value ] * ]
             [ -attach filter[:arg] [ name=value ] * ]
             [ -mix length [ -mixer transition ]* ]
             [ -transition id[:arg] [ name=value ] * ]
             [ -blank frames ]
             [ -track ]
             [ -split relative-frame ]
             [ -join clips ]
             [ -repeat times ]
             [ producer [ name=value ] * ]+

Clearly it doesn't see the file. I tried with other video and non-video formats, as well as directly calling the file per MLT's instructions:

inigo avformat:mov001.mpg

With the same results.

Re: Is Kdenlive working for anyone on x86_64? [SOLVED]

i must be out of my mind... but here goes:

First ffmpeg needs to be rebuilt with --enable-swscaler. http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7943
Then rebuild libmlt. Use the AUR package I cleaned up.
Then rebuild kdenlive. I used the stable version and it seems to load fine now.

swscaler kills VLC's ability to play at least some video and stream. It still works as a music player though...

I'll build VLC 0.8.6d (pre-release) and see if swscaler doesn't break it. This is a known issue at VLC.

Re: Is Kdenlive working for anyone on x86_64? [SOLVED]

Thanks Tardo, it certainly runs now. I just hope it works well.

Apparently VLC has pulled all builds from Branch. At least I couldn't find any. I know 0.8.6d existed from their forums. I added the info of swscaler breaking VLC to your bug report.

---------------------------

It looks like swscaler kills swfdec too.

LAST EDIT

VLC 9.0 does not suffer from the swscaler problem, and it looks like it's going live very soon. Swfdec when rebuilt against FFMPEG with --enable-swscaler seems to work properly.

Kdenlive lives!
